Lindsey Nolen The article I read was about Taylor Swift and her new album, Red, coming out October, 22. The article is about what types of songs will be in Taylor's new album, Red. She named her album "Red" because of all the different emotions she explores in the album. There are going to be 16 songs on the album, they are all pretty much about the crazy relationships she has experienced in the last two years. She has written every song, and has done some duets here and there. She says she wrote one song while sitting on a trampoline, which I think is funny. I think this article is important because it doesn't give too much information about the album, but it makes you want to go out and buy it. I am very excited for October 22!

"Payphone" is a song performed by the band Maroon 5. The song was released on April 17, 2012, as the lead single from their fourth studio album Overexposed. It features rapper Wiz khalifa It was written by Adam Levine. It was produced by Blanco and Shellback. The song is a Pop song and it talks about a romance that is no more. I like this song because its got a good rap part to it. Sadly the clean version wich i had to get cuts a lot of the good parts in the rap out.
Music 6-3 Alicia Keys on Fire As some people would say Alicia Keys’s new hit single Girl On Fire is making her burn. Her new song has three versions but the most known version is the Inferno type of her song Girl On Fire, which supports the title of the song even more, “on fire”. The two unpopular versions of this Hit is the Bluelight and Basci they are more- low toned like her song new song Not Even A King. The Basci version is more solemn and deep-toned, and it sounds more harmonized than the bluelight kind. People can definitely make the perception that ALICIA KEYS IS BACK! After taking a while off from her pregnancy the new wanted to make a comeback in the music industry, so she started to listen to multiple trending songs during her time off so she was still in the groove of things. When she came back to the studio after an interview the lady wrote down she was on fire, so Alicia decided to write a song called Girl On Fire but the struggle was simply that the right words wouldn't come out. This new hit has featured Nicki Minaj and that made it even more popular which is a complete success for Alicia especially.
My article is about how Katy Perry became famous. Katy Perry has been named Billboard magazines woman of the year. She has just released her new movie Part Of Me because thats the song that made her famous. She is very inspirational because she worked for something, failed, and tried again and succeeded. She found her self trying to be like other popstar's because the record company wanted her to and a started to be her self again and thats when she really found who she was in the inside.

Last year on valentinas day justin bieber "got married" to a fan of his who had rare form of cancer and she was so happy because she knew her dreams came true.Before they go married he heard that she was a big fan of his he knew that her time was short so he thought it would make her the happiest girl on the plantet to marry her.He saprised her at her house and they had a litte cerimony.Just a couple days ago she had recently passed away and this was devistating to all of his fans and him becasue we knew that she ment a lot to him.
R.I.P. Avalanna Routh.
10/3/12
" The world lost a fighter but heaven gained an angel". Avalanna Routh the little 6 year old belieber with the rare brain cancer was not only the biggest fan of Justin but the strongest. She was born with a rare cancer and has passed on September 26th 2012, although she is not with us she is still in Justin's heart. Justin tweeted recently saying " The world lost a fighter but Heaven gained an angel." He even said on video that he loves Avalanna and that she has a rare condition where she's not going to make it much longer and that he can't live with out seeing her anymore. He also said that every time he sees her that he wants her to be as happy as she can be. Justin recently dedicated his song Be Alright to her at his concert in Glendale, Arizona. He also mad out his song OLLG ( One Less Lonely Girl) to her on September 29th. I think that it's kinda special on how all the Justin Bieber haters say he shouldn't be famous, when if he wasn't famous Avalanna wouldn't live out her dream. Now I know how this hard to process but, Avalanna's dream was to meet Justin and he made that come true without everyone who loved him from the very beginning she wouldn't know who Justin was. Without Justin knowing about her, all the fans (who wouldn't be fans since he wouldn't be famous) wouldn't know that a little girl died a week ago and the fans friends who don't like him wouldn't care about this either. It still brings tears to Justin's eyes when he thinks about her. Avalanna didn't just see him as a superstar she saw him as her friend. The next time you think about Justin being a horrible person think about how he made Avalanna's dream and how he made her the happiest girl ever. Please pray for her and her family RIP Avalanna we all love you.
